Age has nothing to do with finding love. It happens on it's own schedule. I know of 90 year olds who met and fell in love. It happens, so age is but a number in the grand scheme of things, really.

I like that you respect my opinion, and I respect yours, but like you I disagree. Maybe he has spent a lot of time alone, but that was time spent being miserable, he now should focus on spending it being happy. It'll go faster that way, and he'll be in a relationship before he knows it.
